Default Mississippi to Dishonor US History - 02-13-2011, 05:34 PM

Allow me to take you back 150 years or so and quote from Wiki: “Less educated than many of his fellow officers, [He] had amassed a fortune prior to the war as a planter, real estate investor, and slave trader. He was one of the few officers in either army to enlist as a private and be promoted to general officer and division commander by the end of the war. Although [he] lacked formal military education, he had a gift for strategy and tactics. He created and established new doctrines for mobile forces, earning the nickname The Wizard of the Saddle.”

Who else but General Nathan Bedford Forrest could it be?

General Nathan Bedford Forrest was a self-made, Christian, Southern Gentleman along the lines of Clarke Gable in Gone with the Wind. A man who founded a self-help welfare group for those, who like he, had been educationally disadvantaged. Armed only with a basic world view but a good eye for the use of overwhelming force in the Service of God, his background did not stop him from creating a peaceful and just countryside that, in the years following the War of Northern Aggression, otherwise could have spelled economic and social disaster.

And yet some uppity nigras now want him forgotten – they want to change the history of the USA.

Quote:
BILOXI, Mississippi — A Mississippi proposal to issue a state license plate honoring a Confederate general believed to be a Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan has stirred protest and resurrected the state's ugly racial past.

The Sons of Confederate Veterans proposed that Mississippi issue a specialty plate honoring General Nathan Bedford Forrest, who many historians say was the first Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, the white supremacist group that terrorized blacks in the South after the Civil War.

Forrest is the only individual they want to commemorate. All the other plates would be in remembrance of battles that took place in Mississippi or Confederate veterans as a whole.

The proposal must be approved by the state legislature and signed by Gov. Haley Barbour.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) [Edit: by its title, an avowedly racist organization] sent a letter to Barbour on Friday saying it would be immoral and unconstitutional to honor a KKK leader.

"We are asking the governor to stop this action immediately. Every fair-minded southerner knows that the Civil War was a negative time in history and having a Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan on the back of vehicles will only tarnish the state's image," NAACP state president Derrick Johnson said.

The KKK was a secret racist group active after the Civil War and well into the 20th century. Wearing White robes and masks, KKK mobs sometimes lynched blacks without trial.

This license plate controversy comes just months after Barbour, a Republican, told a weekly magazine that he does not remember the 1960s civil rights struggle in his hometown in Yazoo City as being "that bad." Barbour later clarified that he had not intended to condone segregation in the South.

Sons of Confederate Veterans, an organization that honors Confederate heritage, wants the state to issue the series of license plates to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.

Mississippi Democratic Rep. Willie Bailey, who handles license plate requests in the state House, said he has no problem with the organization creating any design it wants.

"If they want a tag commemorating veterans of the Confederacy, I don't have a problem with it," said Bailey, who is black. "As long as it's not offensive to anybody, then they have the same rights as anybody else has."

Mississippi has allowed over 100 different specialty license plates, which range from the innocuous -- such as wildlife conservation and NASCAR auto racing -- to more controversial such as one opposing abortion. Specialty plates are available to anyone in the state, usually for a fee of $30 to $50 per year. All designs have to be approved by the state government.
